Airplanes, cats, guns, war, the more than occasional rant about the kleptocracy of The Hair Furor and his party of the Confederacy, the spinelessness of the Democraps and ramblings about anything else that flits through the somewhat offbeat mind of an armed lesbian pinko as she slides down the Razor Blade of Life.Caveat lector.

New Horizons: CPA Pluto!

(Actually, one second ago.)

A photo that was taken yesterday afternoon:

Today also marks 50 years (minus about 12 or so hours) since Mariner 4 flew by Mars, the first probe to photograph another world. If you're kind of a science geek, it's been a great ride.*

May I presume you have seen the meme of a "Pluto" the cartoon dog face, imposed over the light colored part in the lower right? It does seem to fit.And, really big high 5 to NASA, and all the other people and Countries that made this happen.We only started air flight in the beginning of the last century, and see how far we have come today.A little over 100 years from flapping our wings with paper wings to looking closely at the far reaches of our solar system. Wow.I have great hope for where we will be in Another Century if we can just keep this planet going for that long.Thrilled.w3ski

Violation of this term is a violation of 18 U.S.C. 1030(a)(2)(C) and you're off to share a cell with Chris Christie, asswipe.

Rule No. 6: If I wanted you to write a "guest post", I'd ask you. Don't bother asking me to put one up from you. I won't. Start yer own goddamn blog.You Have Been Warned.
